I’m passionate about my interests but they revolve as time goes by. Typically, I'm all about music; making, listening, concerts, heckling, you name it. I play guitar and saxophone, but I love working on them just as much.
All art is a form of telepathy in which the spectator experiences the emotion of the creator, but nowhere is that more complete than in music. I love music not only in its harmony and structure, but also in the equipment required to produce it. I want to live in that instant before the bridge meets the chorus, that pre-ignition moment of pure potential.
Has a painting ever resulted in a speeding ticket...or a pregnancy? From the history of its development to the way one style lends to another with the future paying homage to the past. You gotta admit, music is some sexy shit.

Movies
Anything by Kevin Smith. Nothing tops clever dialog with a pothead cast. I could put the same shit down here that everyone else has, so assume that I did; Liar Liar, Tommy boy, Old School, etc. etc. etc. I watch mostly comedies, so I've seen all those and can quote them verbatem; a true skill.
Crank** I think I'm the only one that sites this as a favorite. No where is found a more righteous anger than with revenge..
Red Violin, The Power of One, 8 Mile, Dawn of the Dead, Ray, Training Day, Four Brothers, Donnie Darko, Boondock Saints, Matrix, Pump up the Volume, Stripes, An Inconvenient Truth, Loose Change, Sicko.......Karate Kid, Short Circuit, and Pootie Tang.
Television
I don't watch Television. I got rid of it when Flava Flav got his own show. See, I remember when he was in a -rap- group, funny thing was...being in a rap group, he never said nothin'. So when the TV producers gave him an even bigger platform from which to say nothing, I took it as a sign that they had used up all of their ideas and had just given up.
Books
I read a lot.
I read more than your Cousin Billy
-and- your Aunt Peggy.
See this guy up top?
I read....-That Much-
Yeah...so stand the fuck back.
Heroes
"Myths and creeds are heroic struggles to comprehend the truth in the world. If devotion to truth is the hallmark of morality, then there is no greater, nobler, more heroic form of devotion than the act of a man who assumes the responsibility of thinking..."
"No sooner do we depart from sense and instinct to follow reason but we are insensibly drawn into uncouth paradoxes, difficulties, and inconsistencies, which multiply and grow upon us as we advance in speculation; till at length, having wandered through many intricate mazes, we find ourselves just where we had been...but stronger for the journey"
"We are the local embodiment
of a Cosmos grown to self-awareness.
We have begun to contemplate our origins:
starstuff pondering the stars;
organized assemblages of ten billion billion atoms
considering the evolution of atoms.
Tracing the long journey by which,
here at least...consciousness arose.
Our loyalties are to the species and the planet.
We speak for Earth. Our obligation to survive is owed...
not just to ourselves, but also to that Cosmos.
Ancient and vast.
..from which we spring."
Carl Sagan
The truly creative mind is no more than this: a human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive. To him, a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death. Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create. So much so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is able to do so.
I like to do fun stuff,
and I avoid doing stuff that hurts a lot.
If you wanna know anything else, just ask!
I might walk a lil funny but my walk is me
I might stutter when I talk but I say what I see
I don't agree with every other li'l thing, that's proven
I do a lot of things that I shouldn't be doin'
I'll ruin everything you mighta had in mind
I'm a consistent, belligerent, solidified find
Tigereye freak, suburban star
I ain't got no money and a shitty car
I might make par if it don't take much
See I don't ride very far cuz I ride on luck
Minds gone for weeks, I ain't slept in days
I can't find myself in this self made maze
Never thought about change until
I spent a little time, where time stood still
Been lookin for a mil, but I keep comin up shy
I been a broke fool, I ain't tryin to be that guy
Wanna ride like lightning, roll like thunder
I'm tryin to get some money I ain't gettin any younger
At times I wonder at, at times I won't
Sometimes I give a fuck, but thers's times I don't
Nope, I Don't. Yet can't help but care
Through stained glass windows, these eyes stare
I try to stay straight but it's kickin my ass
Everytime I look ahead I get a glimpse of the past
Well I been all around this crooked land
I came across all walks and shook Jim Beam's hand
I got no plans and no place to go
It keeps gettin harder to just say no
I see the people laugh and I see people cry
That's how some live and that's how some die
Well me, myself, I'm gonna sit right here
And I'll watch this this world break down in tears
All my fears and dark gray skies
Couldn't crack my smile or break my stride
Got too much pride, I got too much shout
I might be down, but I still ain't out
I dwell in the place you might see unfit
But there ain't nothin' you can ever say to make me give a shit
I'd like to say that I don't do them bars
and yet my street called straight don't stretch too far
I'm on the move goin' nowhere fast
And you can tell the whole world they can kiss my ass
I'll take a pass be the last in line
And if it takes 10 years then I'ma be just fine
See comin' clean just seemed so jaded
And bein' underrated is underrated, but I don't hate it
I stay stuck in a rut like I should
You know I do it for the love of everything that's still good
The most beautiful thing about life is also the scariest.... it's that anything can happen at any minute. You may fall in love, win the lottery, kill someone in an accident or lose a loved one. All these things may happen in the same hour. The important thing is to stay in the game. Know that things will change and, however bad you may feel at any point, the joy of contrasts will be yours as you rise out of it. We've all got things going for us that we cannot see. Finding beauty in something for the first time, remembering that you're not perfect, forgiving yourself and looking to be a complete beginner are the way forward. It's the scariest place to be. It's the opposite of cynicism and also the opposite of a pat on the back. It's daunting to know you've got a long way to go. But the realization opens up the best that life has to offer....
Fellow truth seekers...
A
Few
Friends
Breast fed
On the poets pen
A few knew that the night
Sipped poison to bring darkness to an end
A few let the owls turn their heads towards wisdom
The vagabonds made love to love and in the silence
Together with them I listened
Imagine no illusions
Imagine only union
Imagine we are
All friends
Again
slave screams he thinks he knows what he wants slave screams thinks he has something to say slave screams he hears but doesn't want to listen slave screams he's being beat into submission
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see the devils of truth steal the souls of the free don't open your eyes take it from me I have found you can find happiness in slavery
slave screams he spends his life learning conformity slave screams he claims he has his own identity slave screams he's going to cause the system to fall slave screams but he's glad to be chained to that wall
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see the blind have been blessed with security don't open your eyes take it from me I have found you can find happiness in slavery
